Londoners like nothing better than lingering in a cafe over coffee or tea and cake, watching the world pass by. While some prefer French confections, others are fond of simple English cakes like this lavender cake with the fresh, floral taste of the English countryside, embellished with an old-fashioned drizzle icing. The best source for pesticide-free lavender is your own garden or a friend's.

Missing Ingredients?

June 21, 2014

Where is the baking soda/baking powder? There is only 1/2 cup of flour? There should be at least 1.5 cups of flour (in my opinion).

I followed the directions except I infused the butter with lavender. Although I doubt this caused the issue here is what I did with the butter:

Double boiled the butter with 3 Tbs of lavender. Ran it through a strainer to remove the lavender pieces and then whipped the butter in an ice bath to re-solidify the butter. I then used it as I normally would.

The cake turned out like a bread pudding. The flavor was great but I would never make it like this again.

Cons: Texture, Confusing, Unhealthy, Appearance, embarassing
